Victory! Ring Announces It Will No Longer Facilitate Police Requests for Footage from Users
www.eff.org
This is a victory in a long fight, not just against blanket police surveillance, but also against a culture in which private, for-profit companies build special tools to allow law enforcement to more easily access companies’ users and their data—all of which ultimately undermine their customers’ trust.

    I’ve setup a Ubiquiti system. There are two things to know:

    • For the cost of local storage, you are going to spend several years worth of subscription fees
    • The login is still controlled by Ubiquiti’s cloud system, which has had its own problems in the recent past

    Now, I think those are acceptable tradeoffs, but I think we should be clear about its limitations.
